RED, READY, AMBER (Worman - Bloomberg) POLECATS (MERCURY, 1981) Red, ready, amber, set, green, let's go! I'm racin' like the wind, that's not very slow Takin' no notice of my my speedo I put my foot to the floor, race forward and then Had to pull over, I was nicked again [Chorus] I'm the king of the highway and don't you know In my car I'm a cool daddy-o I'm a hot rod kid and I never drive slow Red, ready, amber, set, green, let's go! Red, ready, amber, set, green, let's go! I'm a real mean dude in my daddy's car I go very fast, but I never go far I toot my horn at the girls, just missed a brick wall My foot slips off the gas, and then I stall [Chorus] Red, ready, amber, set, green, let's go! I'm an A one driver, though I don't like to boast I can go across zebras with both eyes closed As for parking, you better beware I park on the pavement, 'cause it's much safer there [Chorus] Red, ready, amber, set, green, let's go! I stole the car from our garage While my mama's on the phone to my auntie Marge My dad didn't notice, he was watchin' the telly I got on the road and a gave it some welly [Chorus] |

Some of the lyrics are: Here's a story of a kid who's got the hottest car around never does under 55 when he's speeding through the town on the highway he opens it up and does 105 taking a chance of leaving this world and making someone cry CHORUS:x1 the hot rod kid the hot rod kid boy he loves to drag driving cars at super speeds and you should hear him brag |
